Summary

I have dedicated the last 12 years of my career to Scripps Clinic where I have functioned as a hospital based Certified Nurse Midwife. I am eager to transition back in to a position that would allow me to return to full-scope practice. I have spent 16 years mastering the art of collaborating with physicians, nurses, families and patients to create a safe and nurturing environment which allows for a greater probability for good outcomes to occur. I have learned to be skilled in working under pressure and adapting to new situations and challenges. I am excited to become part of a team that is committed to providing stellar care for our patients and their families.
